végtagot

Végtagot is the definite accusative singular form of végtag, a Hungarian noun meaning limb or extremity. In general use, végtag refers to a limb of a human or animal; végtagot appears when the limb is the direct object of a sentence.

Anatomy: In medical and anatomical contexts, a végtag refers to a limb and is divided into upper and lower categories: felső végtag (upper limb) and alsó végtag (lower limb). Each végtag comprises bones connected by joints, as well as muscles, tendons, nerves, and blood vessels that enable movement and sensation.

Development and function: Limb development occurs during embryogenesis as limb buds grow and later ossify; proper vascular and neural patterning is essential for function. The primary roles of a végtag are weight support, locomotion or grasping and manipulation, and interaction with the environment through sensory input.

Clinical relevance and variation: Injuries such as fractures, sprains, or nerve injuries commonly involve a végtag. Congenital limb abnormalities may affect size, structure, or function. Across vertebrates, végtag terminology is used to describe forelimbs and hindlimbs, with diverse morphologies such as wings or flippers.
